Citroen C4 - Video tutorial

Model: Citroen C4 MK 1 - Years 2004-2010
Part: Engine
Operation: Replacement of cylinder head fixing pins

After the engine has been regenerated, in the reassembly phase, as well as replacing gaskets and oil seals, it is also important to replace the cylinder head fixing pins since they have a fairly low cost. The first operation to perform is to go over the threads of the cylinder bank with the appropriate male (use a thread counter to establish the type of pin, understood as diameter and pitch of the threads, and then select the right male), taking care not to let any chip residues end up in the cylinders themselves. Once this is complete, place the gasket and cylinder head, apply the putty to the new pins and tighten according to the predetermined pattern.

Handbrake adjustment on Ford Ecosport

First remove the plastic profile at the base of the gear lever. To do this, slightly widen the side edges and carefully lift it to release it. There is no need to remove it completely, just move it forward to avoid bother. Now remove the plastic center console around the handbrake by first working from the rear to release it and lifting it until the brake lever passes. Also in this case it is not necessary to remove it completely but, paying attention to the connected cables, it can be stowed in front of the passenger seat. At this point we notice that at the base of the handbrake lever, on the front, we find a nut. By acting on it, with a 10 wrench, we can adjust the brake force, increasing it by turning the nut clockwise, or decreasing it by turning it counterclockwise. Once adjusted, the center console can be repositioned first, pressing lightly to engage it, and then the profile of the gearbox base.
